Eric,

For your information, some  investors  use consultants.  The biggest one
in the United States  is the Townsend Group (Guardian was rated a level
4 which is Townsend's highest rating)   Additional consultants include
Cambridge, NEPC (New England Pension Consultants) and Courtland
Partners.  Investors like Guardian's  niche strategy and experienced
management team.  Issues that sometimes come up are that the  fund is
too small ($200 M and biggest investment can be $50 M) and that Guardian
only invests in the Washington DC Metropolitan Area ( over 400 M sq ft
in 4000 plus office buildings in the best office market  in the United
States but it  is not always considered geographically diverse.  We have
very strong references including The MacArthur Foundation (Tim Hoeppner
and Sharon Nikonchuk),  BlackRock (Eugene McDonald), Aviva Investor,
North America (Ed Bates), Rasmussen Foundation (Adam Gibbons) Santa
Barbara Cottage Hospital (Michael Bunn), Texas Children's Hospital
(Howard Harpster).  Howard ( previously  managed British Petroleum funds
in the US) invested with Guardian in Fund II when he was (CIO) Oxford
Financial  Group.
